Background

East Central competitive teams (also known as classic, traveling or select teams) are formed at ages 11U through 19U. This is a program for the more committed player and parents. It provides players the opportunity to advance in their technical and tactical skills through a higher level of competition. Competitive soccer often involves more practice, commitment to the game, fund raising, and more travel. 

Games are held in neighboring communities, but will include other cities such as Fond du Lac, Oshkosh, Green Bay and Manitowoc. Teams will generally enter several tournaments throughout the season.

Competitive teams are formed in June after tryouts.  

Fall games runs from late August into October.

Winter Training inside on Kimberly or Kaukauna School District Field Houses or Gyms.

Spring games runs from late April until late June.
